Hope D'Addario had time to move the ball to her right foot, which is what she usually uses for shots.

She didn't, but it didn't matter.

D'Addario's left-foot shot from 30 yards out provided the difference in top-ranked Neuqua Valley's 1-0 victory over No. 5 Lyons on Saturday in the championship game of the Naperville Invitational at Naperville Central.

"I probably had more space than I thought I did. But I'm comfortable with my left foot, so I just went for it," said D'Addario, a sophomore who scored her second goal of the season. "Luckily it hit the crossbar and went down."

The goal in the 31st minute was enough to give the Wildcats (17-0) their first title in the 14th annual tournament. They didn't allow a shot on goalkeeper Courtney Keefer in picking up their ninth shutout.

"We're not stopping here," UCLA-bound senior Megan Oyster said. "This isn't the end — it's only the beginning. We need to look at this win as the start to the journey of (winning) state."

Lyons (14-3-1) lost in a championship game of a tournament for the second time in two weeks. The Lions also fell 1-0 to Loyola in the Pepsi Showdown final.

"We've lost both, but this has given us a good opportunity to play in games with a lot on the line," Lyons senior midfielder Kelsey Holbert said. "We'll be going into the state tournament pretty soon, so it was good for the younger players to be in this atmosphere already."
